Please Come Back, Honey! novel Chapter 81

Chapter 81

“I‘m her father! She went missing while I was hospitalized! Why can‘t I name and shame her? She failed as a daughter!” Steven shouted.

That was what Emma heard when she came to the room. She felt like laughing. Man, he knows no shame. I‘m her father‘? How can he even say that with a straight face? Is his conscience gone or something? Maybe they thought I didn‘t know anything about my adoption. That‘s probably why they thought they could push me into a corner.

Wesley tried to persuade them. “But this will be a lose–lose situation. You guys won‘t get anything if she loses her job.”

Steven cursed, “I don‘t f*cking care! I‘ll make her life a living hell if she doesn‘t give me what I want!”

Emma could not hold back anymore, and she barged into the office right away. So much for my family. They deceived me four years ago, and now they want to ruin my life again?

The moment she came in, Steven pounced at her. “You useless girl! How dare you show up?” Steven wanted to raise a land against her.

Wesley came to her rescue right away. He pushed her behind him and warned, “Touch her and I will call the guards.” He never thought these men would go so far as to hurt Emma.

Simon and Steven took a few steps back, scared that Wesley might hurt them.

Simon looked at Wesley for a moment and leered. “Oh, you seem worried about my sister. Do you like her? Well, she‘s used goods now, so I can give you a discount. You can buy her at a cheap price from us. What do you think?”

Wesley stared at Simon in disbelief. He had no idea someone could say something so horrible. That was insulting to both him and Emma. His hands were trembling with rage.

“Sorry, Mr. Zurich.” She was not surprised. If they could give her to Trevor like a present four years ago, they could give her to another man now. She was numb to their tactics. Emma came out from behind Wesley and announced coldly, “Why should I provide for you? You‘re not my real father.”

Wesley was shocked. Simon and Steven froze for a moment, but then the old man angrily denied, “What do you mean I‘m not your father?”

“Yeah!” Simon agreed. “How could you, Emma? You would renounce your own father just so you don‘t have to provide for him?”

“Enough with the arguments. Mom told me everything before she died.” She was disgusted by their antics. If she had the paternity test results, she would have thrown that at them and saved her breath.

Simon and Steven exchanged panicked looks. The old man decided to deny everything. “You can‘t believe everything your mother told you.”

Emma said calmly. “Fine. Let‘s do a paternity test then.”

Steven snorted. “Why should I? You‘re my daughter because I said so. You‘re obligated to provide for me!”

Emma expected Steven to deny it, so she had already done the test.
